Performance. Revival by Agata Siniarska in the frame of Tanznacht Berlin 2025: Vocal Affairs

“null&void” seeks to tell the stories of wartime mass destruction from the ground — from the perspective of landscapes, matter and non-humans and their constantly neglected voices.



Warfare is a strictly anthropogenic phenomenon that weaves a whole network of human and non- human interconnections into its damaging effects. It involves the exploitation of natural resources driven by the capitalist imperative for economic growth that leads to armed conflicts, environmental pollution and, in the longer term, to the extinction of diverse ecosystems of plants, animals and humans. 


  • How to situate human in a humanless postwar landscape?
  • How can the perspectives of non-humans be captured with a human body? How can these stories be told, knowing that this task is inherently burdened with an impossibility?

Agata Siniarska (she/her) works in the field of extended choreography. She localises her practice between how we think about the world and how we move in it. Her art operates at the interface between somatics and politics, body perception  and social engagement — between somatic and environmental landscapes, between human and non-human bodies. The focus of her current research is the idea of the idea of an Anthropocene museum, multi-species archives in the time of extinction and various human and non-human alliances.
